done using ColorSynergyª software by Candela¨, Ltd. This program can also be used to create your own custom printer profiles. For more information on ColorSynergy, contact FARGO.

The ColorSyncª option is available only if you selected the Install ColorSync 2.0 option from within the printer driver installer program when installing the PrimeraPro printer driver. The printer driver installation procedure is described in Section 7-B. Selecting the ColorSync option forces a ColorSync match to be performed on the image to be printed. The following ColorSync options are available:

Perceptual: All the colors of a given source profile are scaled to fit within the range of colors that can be printed. The colors maintain their relative positions, so the relationship between colors is maintained.

Solid Color Relative: All colors that fall within the range of both source and printer profiles are left unchanged. This type of color matching allows some colors to be exactly the same. A disadvantage of this type of matching is that many colors may map to a single color resulting in tone compression.

Saturation: The relative saturation of colors is maintained from the source to the printer. Colors outside the range of the printer are converted to colors with the same saturation, but different lightness.

ColorSync also supports three different Quality levels: Best, Normal, and Draft. The better the quality, the longer the image will take to process. Choose these options accordingly.
